Cardiac Clinical Trials
Cardiovascular clinical trials look at new treatments for heart issues. If rigorous research studies prove these treatments or devices are safe and effective, the Food and Drug Administration allows them to become available.

An echocardiogram (ECHO) is a test that uses ultrasound to show how your heart and valves are working.
Arrhythmia treatment depends on the type and severity of the arrhythmia. Treatment options include: medications, lifestyle changes, invasive therapies, electrical devices or surgery.
Cardiac stress tests look to find out the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, and how tired they feel under different levels of physical activity. The test also involves an electrocardiogram test.
A catheterization laboratory or cath lab, is an examination room with diagnostic imaging equipment used to visualize the arteries and the chambers of the heart and treat any abnormalities found.
Emergency is a medical specialty concerned with the care and treatment of acutely ill or injured patients who need immediate medical attention.
Ablation therapy is a type of minimally invasive procedure physicians use to destroy abnormal tissue that can be present in many medical conditions.
Ascending aorta replacement is performed when there is aneurysmal enlargement or dissection of the aortic root. The ascending aorta is very often involved in this process.
A heart, or cardiac, CT scan is used by a physician to view your heart and blood vessels. These scans create detailed images, which can help your doctor to detect any problems.
An implantable cardioverter defibrillator is useful in preventing sudden death in patients with known, sustained ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation.
A permanent pacemaker is a device that sends small electrical impulses to the heart muscle to maintain a suitable heart rate or to stimulate the lower chambers of the heart.
An electrophysiology (EP) study is a test performed to assess your heart's electrical system or activity and is used to diagnose abnormal heartbeats.
An electrophysiology (EP) study is a test performed to assess your heart's electrical system or activity and is used to diagnose abnormal heartbeats.
A biventricular pacemaker and ICD is a small, lightweight device powered by batteries. This device helps keep your heart pumping normally.
An aortic valve replacement is a procedure where the failing aortic valve of a patient's heart is replaced with an artificial heart valve.

Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a bypass surgery that can create new routes around narrowed and blocked coronary arteries, increasing blood flow to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the heart.
An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) records electrical signals from your heart to check for heart conditions.
Cardiac rehabilitation often involves exercise training, emotional support and education about lifestyle changes to reduce your heart disease risk.
Mitral valve repair/replacement (MVR) may include patching holes in a valve, reconnecting valve leaflets, removing excess valve tissue, replacing cords that support the valve to repair the structural support, and separating valve leaflets that have fused.
Coronary artery bypass graft is a surgical procedure used to treat coronary heart disease. It diverts blood around narrowed or clogged parts of the major arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed aortic valve that fails to open properly.
Tricuspid valve repair/replacement (TVR) are procedures that treat diseases affecting the tricuspid valve. The tricuspid valve helps keep blood flowing in the right direction through the heart.
Calcium scoring is a test for people who have no symptoms of heart disease but may be at risk for getting it. The test uses computed tomography to check for calcium buildup on the walls of the coronary arteries.
A loop recorder is a heart-monitoring device that records your heart rhythm continuously. It records the electrical signals of your heart and allows remote monitoring.
A nuclear medication scan is a special imaging scan that uses a small amount of a radioactive substance to make internal structures, such as bones, organs, and tissues stand out. The radioactive substance is injected, inhaled, or swallowed and collects in a certain area of the body, then the scan is done with special cameras.
